My Home About Me

I get very frustrated when I watch TV because of all the advertisements. I know, I should get Tivo or a DVR, but thus far I haven't. A few weeks ago I decided to do something odd. I actually counted the minutes of ads while watching ABC's "Boston Legal". After I tallied the numbers I was shocked that 25 minutes of the hour long program were advertisements. This really frustrated me since I pay a fee to a cable company to watch my own TV, and then they waste 25 minutes of my time trying to sell me something during the show. Television is nothing more than a sales tool that has molded and shaped the minds and spending habits of consumers. Then it hit me. Now I know why America has a zero savings rate, while the Chinese have a savings rate of 50%. Hence, my 4th quarter score above stands, Chinese 50%, the US 0%.
